Marcus the Worm ($MARCUS) is a community-driven memecoin inspired by the viral VRChat character “Marcus the Worm”. The character, a bipedal worm avatar, spread on TikTok and other social medias in early 2025 through clips posted by streamers and content creators. The token was created as a cultural reference and digital collectible within the broader meme ecosystem. It does not claim to have intrinsic utility or financial value but serves primarily as a community experiment and expression of internet culture.
